Flavor Wire

"FOMO: Anxiety that an exciting or interesting event may currently be happening elsewhere, often aroused by posts seen on a social media website." -google translate

Don't worry guys - you'll get 'em next weekend!

1. Stress eating.

When you didn't get the invite to that poppin' party so you turn to your bed and binge eat Cup Of Noodles.

2. Salvation.

When you see a post of your friends at Cheesecake Factory but you didn't go 'cause you're on a diet.

3. Obsessive refreshing of snap chat.

Just sitting there hoping to get in on the festivities by watching them via snap story.

4. Online shopping addiction.

When you're sad about missing out on the fun so you turn to retail therapy in hopes of having a well-prepared outfit for the next darty.

5. Profuse sweating.

When you realize your crush is there with that girl you hate while you're sitting home halfway through your third box of cheese itz.

6. Temporary insanity.

That brief moment where you consider going to your ex's social in your sweatpants and stealing the keg.

7. Increased sense of YOLO.

When you you throw her a like on that pic she posted from that party they didn't invite you to.

8. Panic.

The instant regret you feel about not going out once you see how lit the party turned out to be.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
